Nana Nonpartisan:“I didn’t come here to be partisan. I didn’t come here to be bipartisan. I came here, as did my colleagues, to be nonpartisan, to work for the American people, to do what is in their interest.

They just didn’t have the ideas that had the support of the majority of the people in the Congress. ”
